expansive public investments and expenditures have to be concentrated in ecological,
educational and social fields (Bomer, 2000b, chapter 5 and 6). These policies have to
be implemented and accompanied by a substantial financial redistribution in favour
of the regions in crisis. A modern, cluster-orientated regional and local economic
strategy, as has been realised by the city of Dortmund and state government of NRW,
is necessary, but by no means sufficient.

To criticise the unrealistic aspects of the new visions of the dortmund-project and the
Projekt Ruhr (2000) is, of course, to walk a tight-rope because I do not want to
damage the new feeling of a new age dawning.
